new manual materialIES Phase 2 Process

A SNAP REDE involves:

  • completing a REDE application,
  • conducting an interview,
  • a review of eligibility; and
  • the SNAP unit's cooperation.

Note: For SNAP units containing a unit member who is employed, schedule a phone interview instead of a face-to-face interview at the Family Community Resource Center unless the SNAP unit requests a face-to-face interview. If the SNAP unit requests a face-to-face interview conduct one.

See PM 19-07-04 for the REDE process on Mid-Point Reporting units (see PM 19-07-01).

If a SNAP unit files a timely SNAP REDE application, provide benefits for the new approval period by the unit's usual mailing date. Do not extend the approval period without a new application or request.

For changes reported at the REDE, make the change starting with the first month of the new approval period, except for a reported addition to the unit.
